R. Kelly 'Trapped In the Closet' Actors -- We Got MARRIED After Meeting on the Set

So, there we were ... calling actors from R. Kelly's "Trapped In the Closet" saga to see how they felt about 32 new installments ... when we found out the two main stars GOT MARRIED IN REAL LIFE!!!

TMZ has learned Rolando Boyce and LeShay Tomlinson -- who starred as cheating couple Rufas and Cathy in Chapters 1-22 -- fell in love after meeting on the set in 2005 and tied the knot just three years later!

The couple is now raising 4 children together, including 2 from a previous marriage.

As for the original topic -- how they felt about R. Kelly's attempt to make 32 new "Trapped" chapters -- Boyce tells us they haven't heard from the singer yet ... but they're hoping he reaches out.

"We haven't seen Robert in a few years," Boyce says ... "but we'd love to
film with him again ... especially after everything that happened to us
because of the video."
